I had planned on giving you my breakdown of this year's UK basketball team after the first game, but barring last night's developments I feel like I should myself calm down a bit before trying to give an objective opinion. Let's just say that my man-crush status on BCG could possibly be wavering. However, we do have a big football game today and focus must be shifted.
Fun Fact: Vanderbilt is 0 for their last 19 attempts to become bowl eligible in the last 25 years. WOW! That includes a 0-3 record against the Cats. Part of that is the schedule tends to be front-loaded with easy out of conference games prior to the SEC schedule, but you figure the ball might bounce their way one time. Today is not their day.
So I have to make the preview quick because I must get back to work, but here's how it breaks down: when Vandy was winning they were turning over their opponents and not turning the ball over themselves. In the last 4 games they have committed 8 turnovers. With sloppy conditions, holding onto the ball should be at a premium. Also, Vanderbilt's offense is bad. REALLY bad. 115 out of 117 in D1 bad. So, if we don't give them great field position, I really like our chances.
